Edmunds has seen a 10% increase in traffic on its website in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving.  It’s usually a good barometer of shopping activity a week or two down the road.    Given the early reports from our reporters charting activity in the wee hours of Black Friday, there appears to be more shoppers and more items in the checkout–some early indicators that even here in Detroit there appears to be the beginnings of a modest recovery underway.
